Qu. 10. Ask them whether they say not themselves that Hypocrisy is a great aggravation of all other sin? and whether God hath not made the Hypocrites and Unbelievers to be the standards in Hell? Luke 25. 51. And whether seeking to abuse God by a mock-religion do make such false Christians better than the poor Heathens and Infidels, or much worse? And whether he be not an Hypocrite that professeth to be a Christian, and a servant of God, when he is none, nor will be? And whether he that knoweth his masters will and doth it not, shall not have the sorest stripes, or punishment? Luke 12. 47.

Qu. 11. Ask them whether in their Baptism, (which is their Christening, as to Covenant,) they did not renounce the flesh, the world, and the Devil, and vow and deliver up themselves to God, their Father, their Saviour and their Sanctifier? And whether all or most men perform this vow? And whether a perjured Covenant-breaker against God, is fitter for salvation, than one that never was baptized?
